Zingers from Croft M. Pentz, Tyndale House Publishers
4261. An egotist is a man who thinks as much of himself as you think of yourself.
4262. Some people know more when you try to tell them something than when you ask them something.
4263. The bigger the man, the less he’s aware of his size.
4264. The person who knows nothing always seems to be confident in all things.
4265. Pride is to the character like the attic to the house–the highest part and generally the most empty.
